Run
Comments: Course was slightly more challenging than expected, but that doesn't excuse this performance. Considering I ran faster splits in very windy conditions for 5 miles at the Delmar Dash, it's safe to say this proves what I've been feeling: I'm losing fitness. We will see if I'm able to find the time and motivation to turn things around for summer. As for the actual race, I went up the opening hill a little too hard then just held on, never really being able to bring my pace down. Not great strategy but don't think it made a difference. What would you do differently?: Not show up to a race out of shape? Post race
Warm down: Walked around meeting up with everyone. What limited your ability to perform faster: Poor fitness Event comments: Overall a nice event, and impressive given its size and the course right through the middle of Albany on a weekday evening. They had some live music and the patrons of establishments along the way were outside cheering. Nothing really going on post race but I guess I wasn't expecting too much either. Overall had a lot of fun with my classmates and even though I was disappointed, they were all very impressed, so that was nice. Last updated: 2016-05-26 12:00 AM

Met up with my classmates and walked down to the plaza, picked up our bibs, and took some team pictures.
One mile easy with a few short pickups.
